You can get a raised steering arm to take care of your steering issues. Yes, front blocks are definitely not the way to do a lift - very unsafe. I can't imagine someone was driving around with 4" lift blocks up front.

Get a pair of 4" lift springs and you should be good to go. You'll need new u-bolts also. I'd look into a pair of Tuff Country Ez-Ride front springs.

You wil need bushings for the springs also. They should come with them but better ask. If they don't get greaseable ones. I agree with Yukon, get Tuff Country's.
